Weird Farmhouse

Feng Qi drove and found a shop that bought traditional costumes according to the organizer's recommendation.Wu Tong helped him choose an ivory Chinese tunic suit with a stand collar from a large pile of gowns and Tang suits.This dress was worn on Feng Qi's body, and the word Yushu Linfeng seemed tailor-made for him. He was so satisfied with Wu Tong's eyes that he bought it happily.

After buying the clothes, Feng Qi drove to the theater, there were already many people there, all of them brought various national musical instruments, some were tuning the piano, and some had already started rehearsing.

Feng Qi walked around but couldn't find Sheng Yiming. He was about to call to ask, when a female staff member came to him: "Excuse me, is this Teacher Feng Qi?"

Feng Qi looked back at her: "Yes, I am."

The female staff showed a surprised expression: "It turns out that you are so young. If you hadn't been carrying the piano on your back, I wouldn't dare to recognize it. That's right, our rehearsal has changed slightly. It turns out that you and Professor Sheng performed " "Xiaoxiang Yunshui", now Professor Sheng has an accident, he can't come to the performance this time, so it becomes your solo."

Hearing this, Feng Qi hurriedly asked: "Is Professor Sheng not coming? Is there any accident? Is he okay?" He and Wu Tong came here specially for Sheng Yiming, if they can't meet him, then they come Beijing means less.

The staff member said: "I heard that it was a lumbar disease, and I couldn't sit up. Otherwise, I wouldn't miss such an important event. We haven't heard Mr. Feng play the piano. Today we will rehearse according to the original order. Let's see the situation first. .You should have no problem playing solo, right?"

Feng Dian nodded: "I will try my best."

At this level of concert, Feng Qi, the little-known Ye Luzi, would not have been able to attend, not even to be an accompaniment to the orchestra, because the folk orchestras have regular luthiers, and they have been rehearsing together for a long time. .The last time Feng Qi came to Beijing, he met Sheng Yiming through friends. To be precise, he made friends with Qin.Sheng Yiming has played the piano all his life, and he has never met someone as talented and talented as Feng Qi. He loves talents and wants to win a performance opportunity for Feng Qi, but he is not qualified to change the arrangement of the program, and add more For a program, he changed his own guqin solo to an ensemble.Now that the ensemble is going to be changed to Feng Qi's solo, it can be said that he doesn't trust him.

The staff said: "Then you rehearse first, we will start the rehearsal later. Have you brought the costumes? Try to perform in the costumes."

"I'll take it." Feng Qi agreed with all his mouth. He had Sheng Yiming in his heart, and when the other party left, he quickly said to Wu Tong: "Don't worry, I'll call Professor Sheng and ask, and I'll definitely see him." .”

Hearing what the staff said just now, Wu Tong was also worried. He came here for Sheng Yiming this time. If he didn't come, then wouldn't his trip be meaningless.

Feng Qi called Sheng Yiming with his mobile phone, the laughter on the other end was very hearty, it sounded like the old man was quite angry, he apologized to Feng Qi, while comforting him to perform well, saying it was nothing serious, just treat it as Just relax and play like you usually play the piano.

Of course Feng Qi wasn't afraid that he wouldn't be able to cope with the performance, he was just worried about Wu Tong's affairs, and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Sheng, I will play well. After I finish the performance, I will visit you at your home."

"Okay, come and report the results to me when the time comes, play well, don't embarrass me, I let you go after all the arguments." Sheng Yiming said with a smile.

Feng Qi knew that this was definitely true. As a professor at the National Conservatory of Music, Sheng Yiming was full of peaches and plums. Among his students, there were many Guqin masters. This time he tried to defy all opinions and let him play. Many people are probably dissatisfied, so we must You have to play well.

Feng Qi found a lounge, put down the piano and practiced the piano, he said to Wu Tong: "If you are bored, you can look around, there are many master musicians here."

Wu Tong smiled: "I don't know those masters, and I don't know much about music, so I'd better listen to you." It was the same at first, if it wasn't for getting back his soul, how could he have come into contact with classical music.

Feng Qi said: "Then listen to me."

Feng Qi put the qin on the table and started to play the qin. In order to cooperate with Sheng Yiming's ensemble, he put a little emphasis on the practice process, so now he wants to reverse this situation.

Wu Tong found that as long as Feng Qi played the piano, he would shield everything around him, and the world seemed to be outside the piano.Listening to the sound of his piano, Wu Tong seemed to be brought into the smoke and waves of the Dongting. The clouds and water in front of him were constantly changing, like a picture scroll slowly unfolding, sometimes calming the mind, sometimes surging, and changing frame by frame The colorful pictures touched his mind, as if he had been bathed in a baptism of the soul.

After the last sound of the piano, the lingering sound disappeared, as if water waves emerged on the surface of the lake, pushing them around lightly and quickly, reaching the depths of people's souls.

Feng Qi put away his hands, let out a long breath, and asked Wu Tong: "What do you think?"

Wu Tong didn't speak, but smiled slightly.

Feng Qi raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Have you not regained your soul yet?"

Wu Tong came back to his senses: "Oh, it's pretty good."

Feng Qi said: "I ask you a question."

"what?"

Feng Qi said: "If you get your soul back, what is the first thing you want to do?"

Wu Tong blinked, looked at Feng Qi, hesitated before saying, "Did you know?"

"Know what?" Feng Qi raised his eyebrows.

"Know where my soul is."

Feng curled his lips into an arc: "Guess."

Wu Tong lowered his head, stretched out his hand to fiddle with the Qingtong Qin a few times, and then said, "It's fine if you don't want to say it. But I still want to thank you."

Feng Qi raised his head and said: "No need to thank you, this should be my responsibility. I hope you can live freely and go wherever you want in the future. I just have one extra wish, I can go with you."

Wu Tong looked down at him, noncommittal.

At this time, someone came to inform the preparations for the rehearsal, because there was an official performance in the theater tonight, and they had to make room for other troupes earlier.Feng Qi got up, changed into the performance costume, and said to Wu Tong: "Go to the front and find a seat first, I'll go to the backstage to prepare."

Wu Tong went to the auditorium and found that there were very few people watching the rehearsal, mainly relatives and friends brought by the performers, and some staff were watching the effect at the front desk.Wu Tong found a seat in the middle of the front row and sat down, waiting for the rehearsal.This time it is a folk music concert, and the participants are all traditional Chinese musical instruments, such as flute, xiao, xun, sheng, drum, zither, guqin, erhu, pipa, dulcimer, suona, chimes and other instruments, which are simply dazzling. Not enough ears.There are ensembles and solos, it is a feast for the ears.

The performers on the stage were all concentrating on performing, but there were still some minor mistakes. After all, it was a dress rehearsal, and it was necessary to check and fill in the gaps.Wu Tong just listened to the two people standing in front of him watching and directing. From time to time, they would gather together to discuss in a low voice. It seemed that they were the director of the concert.

Wu Tong had read the program list, and Feng Qi's program was relatively low, the third from the bottom, and there were two ensemble repertoires of folk orchestras in the back, so in terms of solo repertoire, he was the finale.Probably because of Sheng Yiming's great reputation, he was asked to take the lead, but he didn't expect that he couldn't come, so he could only let Feng Qi, a nobody.

Finally it was Feng Qi's turn, the host came out to announce the curtain, the light on the stage dimmed, Wu Tong's eyesight was good, and he saw someone carrying a table and stool up, and Feng Qi himself came up with a piano.A person standing in front of the stage said: "Director Lu, this program was originally hosted by Professor Sheng. He was sick and couldn't come, so he asked his partner to come on stage. This partner is not his student, and we don't know each other. He was recommended by Professor Sheng." , let's see the effect first, if we can't pass the test, we can replace it."

Wu Tong knew that the concert tickets and program list had already been sold out, and the program had been fixed, so if Feng Qi did not perform well, he would definitely have to replace him.But he wasn't worried about Feng Qi. After listening to this round of programs just now, he played a lot of skillful and emotional music, but he hadn't heard music that could touch people's soul like Feng Qi.

When the light came on, a beam of light slanted on Feng Qi's body. He sat in front of the piano table, wearing an elegant Chinese tunic suit, raised his hand, glanced in Wu Tong's direction, and then flicked his fingers, The elegant overtones are like water waves floating, and they spread out all at once, filling the entire theater.Both the director and the planner fell silent, with one hand under their armpit and the other on their chin, listening to the music quietly.

Feng Qi's performance was impeccable, even better than what he played in the lounge just now, he played the whole piece leisurely.Wu Tong raised his hand and clapped his palms a few times, and the actors who were watching the rehearsal at the front stage also applauded after the performance, even the director applauded, and said to his colleagues: "I don't think there is any need to change it, Professor Sheng recommended it." People must be trustworthy."

Another person shook his head with emotion: "I really didn't expect the guqin to sound so good. Good music can really talk to the soul."

Wu Tong just felt extremely proud, of course Feng Qi played the piano the best.Feng Qi stood up, glanced in Wu Tong's direction, and then went down with his piano.After a while, he came over with his piano on his back, sat next to Wu Tong, and whispered, "How am I playing?"

Wu Tong looked back at him and gave him a thumbs up: "You play well. I think the director praised you just now."

The corner of Fengqi's mouth raised: "Fortunately, I didn't embarrass you."

After the rehearsal was over, Feng Qi said, "It's still early, shall we go see Professor Sheng?"

Wu Tong licked his lips: "Don't wait for the concert to end?"

Feng Qi smiled and said: "I'll go and report to him, let him take a reassurance, so that he can recover from his illness with peace of mind."

Wu Tong felt that this reassurance was for himself, and of course he hoped to see Sheng Yiming soon so that he could inquire about Jiuxiao Huanpei.

So after the two came out of the theater, they went directly to Sheng Yiming's house.In fact, Feng Qi didn't even know where Sheng Yiming's house was. He figured it would be at the Conservatory of Music, and he called when he got in the car. It turned out that the other party's house was not at the Conservatory of Music, but within the third ring road, which was not far from Feng Qi's home. Save trouble.

Wu Tong was a little nervous. Now it seemed that he was the closest to the Jiuxiao Huanpei, but how could he get the Jiuxiao Huanpei?No matter how you say it, it feels a bit abrupt, I don't know if Feng Qi can do anything about it.
